SNMP Communities

SNMP Communities

From the switch console only, you can add, edit, or delete SNMP communi- ties. Use this feature to restrict access to the switch by SNMP management stations. You can configure up to five SNMP communities, each with either an operator-level or a manager-level view, and either restricted or unrestricted write access.

In the default configuration, no manager addresses are configured, and all management stations using the correct community name may access the switch with the corresponding View and Access levels specified for those communities. For any community name, if you want to restrict access to one or more specific nodes, you can enter up to ten IP addresses of such nodes into the Manager Address field. Entering one or more IP addresses in the Manager Address field restricts access to only those addresses.

For more on this topic, refer to chapter 5, “Using HP TopTools To Monitor and Manage Your Network”, and to the console online help.

Configuring SNMP Communities from the Switch Console

Before you begin, ensure that the switch has been configured for IP.

Deleting or changing the community named “public” disables many network management functions (such as auto-discovery, traffic monitoring, and thresh- old setting). Changing or deleting the “public” name also generates a console Event Log message. If security for network management is a concern, it is recommended that you change the write access for the “public” community to “Restricted”.
